Applying to be a mod for private games

Hi, I have introduced my colleagues to Diplomacy and we all love it. However, for the next time we play, it would be great to be able to play with faster turns, but pause it over weekends and evenings.
Is there any way to get mod privileges without taking part in dozens of private games?

ER Team Game Revival

Hey Folks! I was recently thinking about the Europa Renevatio Team game we did a couple years ago and I think we can do it again, better this time. Among the improvements, it may be ideal to determine the teams ahead of time and make them public so we can try to come up with a "balanced" set of 9 teams of 4. Would anyone else (err... 35 others?) want to give it a shot?

Advertise your NON-live games here!

In an effort to compromise the pro-ads versus anti-ads for games: Post here for your non-live games to cut down on the number of ads but still advertise games. Post game link, WTA or PPSC, and the bet. Note: this doesn't count for special rules games.

We lost a player before the start, but the Mods saved the day and the game had not begun yet. Could use one more player.

Thought I'd start this on a whim. A nice, family-friendly version of classic Diplomacy!

Special settings:
1. No neutral supply centers. This is so players aren't rewarded for violating peaceful noncombatant countries' borders. Be kind to Belgium.
2. Public press. This is so players do not lie unduly to each other. All children know that lying is bad.
3. Unrated. This is so players do not feel the need to bully each other over a few paltry virtual tokens. Obviously, children also know that bullying is bad.
3. Victory condition at 7 supply centers. This is so players will have a vested interest in watching their own diet to avoid being cannibalized by hungry neighbors. Is that not a valuable lesson in modesty and temperance?

Colonial 1885, but with the win condition set to 48 to give countries like China or Austria a little bit more of a chance to solo since they can't easily get past some easy stalemates. I ran it with 45 before and it seemed a little low, so trying 48 this time!

So how ranking changes are calculated?

https://www.vdiplomacy.com/board.php?gameID=58525
I soloed two times in Classic, and each gave me about 200 points, and this variant has 17 players, so I thought it'll be about 450 points or so. Now I get 861 points and reach #21. So how ranking changes are calculated?

Any SEA Players? Newbie here looking to find some community!

Hey! I'm Alien, a player based in the Philippines (GMT+8). I got introduced to Diplomacy around this time last year, and I'm finally getting back into the hobby since summer is just around the corner. It's been a struggle finding people to talk to or play with since this hobby isn't the *most* accessible, and most of the players seem to be from the US and EU. Is there anyone from in and around the SEA region looking to link up and organize some games?

IA Map Bugs with New Variant

I've got a variant I'm adding called Incensed. In the playtesting, there are issues with the interactive map. Certain regions work just fine. But there are some regions that don't get highlighted or can't really be clicked on. I'm not sure what the issue is. Seems like it also depends on what browser is being used, too. Any variant creators run into similar issues or know what might be the cause/solution?

Hey guys! I'm curious what you guys think of the local meta here on Vdip, especially compared to other places (i.e. live-person tournaments, webdip, personal friend groups, other & etc.). I've never played anywhere outside of Vdip, having learned the game here and never expanding elsewhere, and I'm curious!

The Sandquest

So I've seen some players here go on some grand "quests" I'll say to play every variant on the site. I've decided I want to join the club and do so aswell, but I want to do so with some sort of cool "twist". Trying to solo every variant is a little impractical, and I'm not certain about something super simple like making them all gunboats. So anyone got some ideas?

Inherent Balance

I was thinking about my past games today, and I noticed a pattern: when I played or fought against a (mostly) sea power that started in the corner, that power tended to have the advantage because of their spawn place and unit composition on the map. Does anyone else feel like this is the case, or do you think that these types of powers are balanced?
For reference, I was thinking of Italy--Balkans 1860, Srivijaya--Known World 901, Madagascar--Africa, and Japan--Youngstown WWII.
